A while ago we reported how Marks and Spence had implemented Plan A- their environmental policy. 12 months on and M&S are doing really well with their plans. If you have been into their stores you will notice that they now have bags for life and are charging 5p for each plastic bag you need. By doing this they have managed to cut down on their plastic bag usage which is great for the environment.
Marks and Spencer’s CO2 emissions have also been reduced by 55 000 tonnes in the last 12 years. They are supporting farmers who are investing in renewable energy and have opened 3 eco-stores! Marks and Spencer’s are setting a great example to other high street stores.
So if you want to support the environment take a look at the M&S Christmas shop. They are currently offering free delivery on orders over £30. Included in the Christmas store are their Christmas hampers which make a great present. As always M&S lingerie makes an excellent present. With Fairtrade cotton now being sold and more support for suppliers M&S clothing make a great green present.
Worried about the credit crunch? At the moment M&S are offering 3 for the price of 2 on Christmas gifts. What are you waiting for?

I can only imagine what a Marks and Spencer hamper must contain, we may not have them in South Africa and Woolworths is about the closes to them and I know what they have it can only be amazing!!!
